A scorched earth campaign against Tucker Carlson has been anticipated, and the first leak of behind-the-scenes video has dropped, fed to Soros-funded Media Matters, which long has been trying to get both Carlson and Fox News silenced.
Someone with access to the video feed from Tucker Carlson’s home studios has leaked a video that they must have expected to be damaging to the former top-rated host, but which really damages the streaming video service, Fox Nation. If Carlson is to be blamed, it would be for being frank and honest in a private conversation.

(YAWN...). Fox better watch out. The only thing it'll accomplish by trying to tarnish Tucker is losing more viewers than they have already.

Fox is a circular firing squad. Ready aim fire, and they all fall down. Well done Fox. Well done.

I think Rupert's biggest problem wasn't Tucker, it is the current imbecile on his Board named Paul Ryan. All the decades of mental conditioning that leads current and former members of congress to do whatever they want and not expect any repercussions is what caused this problem for Fox. I hope Rupert figures it out, but then again, I hope not. They all deserve at Fox corporate the whirlwind that is coming.

Fox's hatred toward Trump is an obsession. Fox bowed & pacified the left by firing Tucker. Tucker was bigger than Fox... they couldn't handle the truth! Ailes made Fox.. Murdock, Cavuto & Ryan destroyed Fox!!!

Why on earth would anyone think that would damage Tucker? A great thing for our side is that the opponents of Tucker and Trump and anyone who speaks the truth are so unhinged that they can't see reality. That's why boldness is essential -- if you don't let the enemy intimidate you they have no effective next step and look like idiots. Because they are.

So far, all the “leaks” I’ve heard only make me love Tucker all the more. He’s real, he’s funny, and he’s fearless. And I’m an unoffended post-menopausal woman, by the way. Nice try, Fox.

#3 Paul Ryan's behavior might look stupid but he is in fact far from an imbecile. He is a member of the increasingly desperate uniparty intent on holding power and Tucker Carlson is now a part of the existential threat that Trump and others represent. They may get more desperate and more reckless before they get crushed.

I DVRed Tucker every night and would skip through things with which I disagreed (his views on Ukraine, etc.) and some of the sillier stuff, but really liked most of his other topics, from a decent interview with Trump (fair etc. though he disliked the ex President) to the real TWITTER to UFO's etc. Carlson's producer was fired at the same time, by the way, and the results really show: I largely avoid Hannity and his football, dislike Ingraham except for her Seen and Unseen segments (which are froth) and though I like Brian Kilmeade, there is no way the man can do anything but retreads of what every other host on Fox is handing out---------so I don't6 even bother to watch Fox at night anymore, except for dips into The Five and sometimes Gutfeld. As to the weekend's, Levin and that lovely ex Brit on Sunday nights---note Dan Bongiono, WHO WAS EXCELLENT, is now gone. I would love to think Fox is now just another season of "Succession" with Lachlan and Paul Ryan way over their foolish heads, and would hate to think the shrewd Rupert Murdoch was involved in these firings.

Instead of focusing on how to destroy Tucker, maybe Fox should focus on how to stop destroying Fox.

Fox is now no different than all the other alphabet news networks that I stopped watching decades ago because of their political bias. They continue to ax anyone that speaks out against the government narrative. The latest is Carlson. It has been going on for some time. Haven't watched Fox since they got rid of O'Reilly.
I just want to know how they stay in business what with the huge loss in viewers. Will we discover they are all subsidized by the government? It is government run news afterall. That is why Paul Ryan is there. He is a Republican, btw. Not a Democrat. Just goes to show down at their core, both parties are the same.

Perhaps fox should remember Shakespeare's words...."beware...me thinks thou doth protest to much"....lying Ryan needs to shut up and the whipped Murdock boys need to grow a pair and let Tucker go....fox is hurting it's standing in the news circles and even their daily hosts are starting to get angry....and I feel sorry for the replacement the Murdocks have hired...poor stupid man...he's being used to fill a slot that can't be filled....kinda racist don't you think?
